    Here is you saying that mass shootings are not uniquely American even though you could only cite 1 time they had happened in these other places. I can name 3 that have happened in the US in the last 12 days.

    Didn't call you a moron.

    Your response was condescending and mocking don't act like it wasn't.

    Wanna nitpick? Fine. I said two other times it happened. My point was it happens elsewhere, the fact that it did was my only point.

    I didn't misquote you.

    "Even if they are they started out just the same here, as one-offs. My point is I don't think you can say it's simply one thing, like gun culture/laws."

    It's gun culture and other countries by and large do not have the same mass shooting problem the US has.

    "Are they? It may seem like it but who knows, I'd be curious to see the numbers"

    Look, there's the doubt. Do I ever respond to you like that? Quote you and basically call you a moron?

    ... I mean, basically everything you wrote is wrong but if I ignore that then sure.

    yea... 288 is the same as 5.

     

    As usual a joy to interact with. We get it Liger, you're smart and everyone else is dumb.

    My post clearly expresses that I'm not sure of the numbers. For someone who routinely freaks out when they think they're misquoted here you are doing the same.

    they are aberrations in those places. they are endemic here.

    Are they? It may seem like it but who knows, I'd be curious to see the numbers. Even if they are they started out just the same here, as one-offs. My point is I don't think you can say it's simply one thing, like gun culture/laws. This stuff happens all over the world in wildly different cultures. It makes it a much more difficult issue to pinpoint.

    Mass shootings are uniquely American.  Mental illness is not uniquely American.  Its not predominately a mental illness issue.  Treating it like it is predominantly a mental illness issue is denying the real problem.

    No, they're not. 2019 New Zealand Mosque shootings and the 2011 Norway Attacks to name a few. Especially the latter which is just an insane story.

    I just read a little about what happened, before any other facts were out. I don't know the circumstances surrounding it all. 

    I'll look more into it today, but do people with no mental issues just unload on children? 

    I mean conversely, do all people with similar mental issues commit the same acts?

    Don't get me wrong I don't think there's a single great answer here just playing devil's advocate. 

  7. Beyond the offense Mcdavid is just so impressive. He's skating his ass off on dump in, finishing a check, contesting for every puck, then flying back on the forcheck. He's unreal and he has the effort and leadership to match

    The best of the Internet right there. Misinformation followed by uninformed commentary.

    Thank God the shooter was proficient.

    I'm very confused by your posts, do you not believe something happened or...?

    I’m rooting for Tampa for a three-peat but would be ok with Florida, reluctantly Carolina despite their dumb post game routines because Rangers fans are arrogant, Calgary because I can’t stand that Edmonton got McDavid instead of Buffalo, and Colorado because I want to make sure a Canadian team doesn’t make the finals.

    Nailed it

    I don’t see Buffalo on that list.  ***** em all.

    Also nailed it

    I’ve probably mentioned this before, but it deserves repeating. Went to Lowes, Home Depot and Valu Home Center looking for house numbers for my new mailbox.  Some stores had one number but not the other, and another had neither.  With gas at almost $4.50 a gallon, why waste time and money when I can order from Amazon and have the order within two days. 

    Did the same thing, gave up and orders on Amazon in 10m
